We were going to try and write something for this, but its best left in the hands of the owner:
"Hey guys, I've got two tattoos that's from your company and I figured maybe you'd enjoy seeing them. But there's a story behind it you'd never guess. I've been longboarding for about 5 years now, all Because I became friends with a guy named Aaron Boileau. He was a few years older than me but we both played football. He was #36. As time went on, we both skated together a lot and became great friends. A few years ago he joined the army. Did five years as a green beret and was discharged this February. Two [months] ago he passed away due to military related issues. And how else to commemorate my friend than a tattoo of our biggest connection: our love for skating. So I have my Goddess (with additional color), his favorite Sector 9 quote, and his number on me forever. God bless you guys and your company."
...getting better and better, and we keep getting fatter... but really. Nate was skating the Bread Bowl a lot before its destruction and every time his airs would be bigger, grinds longer, you get the point, and we just took a swill of beer. Kid rips!
Nate gets Gold in Vert and Bowl, and Silver in Mini Ramp.
Shaun Ross and Elijah Anderson waited all winter long for the snow to melt up in Mammoth. When they finally got their shot they didnt waste any time. Straight into ninja kicks, doubles runs, Eli's deep end coping clinic, and classic Shaun Ross mega blasts.
Another little glimpse of Gavin at home on Oahu. Great GoPro footage that makes us want to go surfing for the rest of the day. Gavin is such a great dude!!!
San Diego locals and brothers of the 9, Slightly Stoopid, have made the title track off their new album “Top of The World” available for streaming. The album drops in stores on August 14, but the party has already begun!
Spoil yourself this summer and go watch Slightly Stoopid play with 311, SOJA, and the Aggrolites! Currently touring the USA… Jah!
